Gratitude

As February is the month of hearts, it is fitting that we touch on gratitude, for the heart is the home of Gratitude. “A grateful heart leads to loving connection, the ultimate act of well being.”

Though uncertain of the future, feeling and expressing gratefulness allow us to truly appreciate being in the precious present. As life itself brings pains and hardships, it is within us to create joy. Gratitude is it!

It helps us remember the good things that happen, thus creating an optimistic attitude that leads to happiness. Life is a matter of focus – focus on abundance, feel abundant; focus on lack, feel lack.

Many people focus on what is missing, lacking and painful in life. Gratitude can help us focus on what we truly need, not want nor like, making life simpler, uncomplicated. Gives us a feeling of completeness, even just for the moment. Gives birth to positive feeling that effortlessly melts fear, anger, bitterness, pain.

To be like plants that turn towards the light. To experience the gift of joy, foster the feeling of gratitude. Make it a wonderful part of our daily lives, for gratitude is the Mother of Joy!

Peace, safety, abundance to us all!
